Q3 achieves Cyber Essentials Certified Plus accreditation

Providing reassurance to our clients that our IT is secure

Cyber essentials certified plus

In recent weeks, Q3 has been working with partners Active Workspace and CS Risk Management to complete the final stage of the Cyber Essentials accreditation – Cyber Essentials Plus.

Following the good news of the initial accreditation back in October, the final phase involved significant third-party auditing of all the company’s relevant processes and procedures.

The Government instigated the Cyber Essentials scheme in 2014 to provide SMEs with a framework that organisations could use to protect themselves against common online security threats.

This accreditation covers the Q3 Services, Lotus Landscapes and Q3 Services (CI) Ltd businesses.

This is a great achievement for the Q3 business, providing peace of mind in our day-to-day activities and online interaction with our clients.
